I think you did not verify (visually) that the addition is equivalent to the TOA net flux. I do it like follow.

2.2

I find the 2.3 and 2.4 of your assignment03 is totally the same as CHEN Penghan, so I give you half points (5') for these two questions.

2.3

2.4

After our three TAs discussed about question 2.4 and 2.5. We think that's more proper to select radiation by cloud condition and then calculate mean values. That's because radiation values are affected by cloud condition at that moment, not by the mean conditions. So, modified your code as follow, please think more.

2.5

You did not calcualted the global mean values and you also did not answer the question about what is the overall effect of clouds on shortwave and longwave radiation. 2 point was deducted.
